(Update #1) More details on the source from digmouse, lending it credibility:

(Original) According to a post on Chinese forum scboy, Team NV will disband after the ongoing WTL 2022 Summer Season.
The team's Instagram account, which they used to communicate official information, seems to have been deleted already.
I've asked one of WTL's admins about this, who told me that they hadn't received any official information about this from the team yet.
Founded in 2020, Team NV won WTL 2021 Summer and became one of the most prominent South Korea teams in the scene with many former players of Jin Air Green Wings ending up on their roster after the latter disbanded.

Damn, this doesnt look good. I hope Creator and Bunny get into the better team.
P/s: I heard from Nakajin saying that one new team has just created from scratch.

It would be great if Onsyde can get as many of them as possible, create the NV 2.0

Also I guess this opens the gate for potential Chinese teams? Scboy has been asking if founder of one of their main sponsors, former Dignitas pro DreAm has any interest in setting up a team and lack of players was one of the reason he stated.

Ahh, yea that's true, the HSC team! Man, next season qualifier could be crazy.
I would'nt be against a bit of a consolidation of teams tbh. With Onside comming to the league, Basilics wanting to form a team, the chinese team Digimouse is talking about, the PSISTORM manager saying that he want to add a zerg and a couple of team that could be looking to had a player or two (GP, AF, DPG), I feel there's an opportunity to lure in the few remaining European outside of the WTL and maybe transfer player from weaker team to stronger teams (Has come to mind).

In fact, she is a member of club NV,So I think we can be sure that what she said is true。
As he said, Team NV will disband after WTL playoffs, all players will remain as members of 'Club NV' and is free to join new teams. so this weekend is the last WTL for Team NV.

hm.. I mean Maru and Crank left NV because the team was struggling so little wonder. STill, always sad. They went from something of a joke team to a powerhouse.

That's kind of crappy news to hear while NV is going on a streak in the playoff, but I'm guessing the players already knew ahead of time.

The reason is the team owner's discontent with the state of the game...
|
huh. does that mean like the balance or just the shape the "scene" is in?
|
Hope they can find new homes! Good luck to everyone

That sucks. Especially odd with Creator and Bunny having some of the best results of their careers.
|
to be honest, what's up with delete the instagram, it was a well taken care instagram as I recalled last time I visited

It's more like the state of his team. He himself doesn't communicate, that's the issue.
|
I thought the reason why Maru and Crank left was the team financial limitation and the Owner health?
